⁷ He does not withdraw his eyes from the righteous,
    but with kings on the throne
    he sets them forever, and they are exalted.^(A)

    Or who stretched the line upon it?

⁷ He raises the poor from the dust
    and lifts the needy from the ash heap,

⁸ to make them sit with princes,
    with the princes of his people.
